There is a way to clear brokerage yourself, you need to go to a CBSA office and pay for it there...but I'm unsure if you need to decline getting the parcel first and pick up after you can show your receipt for brokerage being cleared by CBSA...if you call CBSA they should give u all of the details and it should save you alot of money if FedEx charges you brokerage fees.
The CBSA office is at Pearson Airport, but on the property, not inside any of the terminals...you need to call them for directions on that as well...
There used to be a CBSA office on Front St downtown Toronto, but since 2015 they closed it...your tax dollars at work...really a petty decision.
I think there is some office on the border as well near Niagara..
Good luck!
